I am 18 years old and grew up in Cologne, Germany. Right now I am a freshman on the field hockey team at the Northwestern University. When I am not studying or playing field hockey, I love to travel. Over my first Thanksgiving break, I went home to one of my teammates to Buffalo and we went to the Niagara Falls. Over spring break, I visited friends in Tokyo.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Being a student, my budget for traveling is not too big. Besides that, Couchsurfing gives me the opportunity to get to know a country and the people from a different perspective. I would love to get to know people all around the world and learn about their culture and traditions.

Music, Movies, and Books

I usually just listen to the charts but I enjoy to read. Lately, I read Moonwalking with Einstein and Outliers, which I can both really recommend. Right now, I am reading 1984.
